The Quest to Receive a Gift From My Hubby and To Take a Social Media Break

I am really happy at the moment, I came home to find a wonderful gift from my husband waiting for me that put such a smile on my face. The Disneyland Haunted Mansion from Department 56. Looking at just brings me joy.

My original post was talking about politics, it seems like my news feed has been politically driven for the last few days and it was frustrating. Two things I swore I would never do on this blog was talk about politics or religion and I was almost ready to hit publish on a long political rant that I decided to delete.

Instead, I’m going to take a break from social media, which for the most part means FaceBook. I’m going to focus on the happy things in my life. It was politics that sent me down a rabbit hole of anxiety back in 2020. It was during that time that I realized I needed to stay focused on my happiness.

I’m going to spend time with my hubby, work on my long list of art projects, and enjoy my fandoms. Get ready for Dragon Con and try to finish spring cleaning.

I’ll still be around, I’ll still be posting my blog and I’ll still be active in a handful of groups. Especially The Hero’s Quarter. I started to take a step back yesterday and I am already feeling loads better. While social media brings us together in so many ways it can also tear us down if we are not mindful.
